There's a chat group for pets in my neighborhood.

Hearing Lu Fang's resounding words, Qin Sheng completely broke down. He stared at the video in Lu Fang's hand and tremblingly grabbed Qin Zhiqiang's sleeve.

"Dad, I can't go to jail! I'm not married yet, if I go to jail, everything will be over!"

Qin Zhiqiang trembled all over, staring intently at the document on the table. His lips parted slightly as he looked at Qin Zhuyan beside him: "Zhuyan, can you give me a way out? I'm your own father."

Despite Qin Zhiqiang's pleas, the coldness in Qin Zhuyan's beautiful brown eyes remained undiminished.

After experiencing this incident, she finally lost all hope for so-called family ties.

A sentence I had kept in my heart since childhood quietly surfaced at this moment.

Little fish, little fish, swim quickly, free in all directions.

"I said, there are two choices."

"Either go to jail, or sign this agreement and never see each other again for the rest of your life."

Qin Zhiqiang resignedly closed his eyes. He knew that the situation was hopeless, and if he continued to act shamelessly, Lu Fang would really send him to jail.

"You're ruthless..." Qin Zhiqiang's hand trembled as he picked up the pen, sighed deeply, signed the statement, and then pulled the absent-minded Qin Sheng to press his fingerprint.

"Can you let us go now?" Qin Zhiqiang looked up, and on his weathered face that looked several years older, his eyes revealed not regret, but a deep-seated hatred!

"Get out." Qin Zhuyan closed her eyes and squeezed out a single word through gritted teeth.

Qin Zhiqiang dared not linger any longer. He scrambled back to the storage room, grabbed his meager, tattered bag, and fled the pet shop as if his life depended on it.

Watching the two figures disappear around the street corner, Qin Zhuyan, who had been holding on, finally couldn't take it anymore. She collapsed into a chair, covered her face, and sobbed uncontrollably.

"Alright, alright, it's all over." Lu Fang gently patted her back: "Here, have a White Rabbit milk candy."

"If you're really feeling unwell, you can lean on my shoulder."

This time, Qin Zhuyan didn't give him a chance to take back her words. She wrapped her arms around Lu Fang's right arm, buried her head in his chest, and sobbed softly.

Lu Fang felt the soft, squeezing sensation and warm, damp feeling coming from his arm, but had no romantic thoughts in his mind.

He could still hear the hateful look in Qin Zhiqiang's eyes.

Let the tiger return to the mountain?

How is that possible!

These are the two choices Qin Zhuyan gave you, not the two choices I, Lu Fang, gave you.

For me, there is only one option!

He took out his phone and dialed a number.

At that moment, Qin Zhiqiang pulled Qin Sheng to flag down a passing taxi and headed to the high-speed rail station, intending to escape Yanling City before making further plans.

But just as the taxi started moving, a police car with flashing red and blue lights braked suddenly and blocked its way.

Xu Qingtang, dressed in a crisp police uniform, opened the car door with two police officers, showed them his identification, and deftly pulled out handcuffs.

"Qin Zhiqiang, Qin Sheng! We have received reports from the public and received conclusive video evidence. You are suspected of the crime of releasing hazardous substances, and we are now summoning you in accordance with the law."

Before they could even react, cold silver handcuffs were already on their wrists.

Qin Sheng stared blankly at the silver handcuffs on his hands, then screamed hysterically, "Didn't you say you wouldn't call the police if I signed? You bastard, you broke your promise! You wait, you wait until I get out, I'll kill you!"

Xu Qingtang sneered: "What, verbal threats? That's an even bigger crime. I'll report what you said to the court truthfully, and I'm sure the law will punish you severely. Take him away!"

Too lazy to waste words with the two of them, she simply put them in the police car and drove away.

"Thank you so much, you've helped our station meet two more targets." Xu Qingtang sat in the police car, giving a rapid thumbs-up.

"It's all about police-community cooperation. I have to thank Officer Xu for taking action and bringing the criminals to justice. I'll treat you to a meal next time I have time." Lu Fang freed one hand to reply to Xu Qingtang's message.

"Don't do it next time. I'll have time after I take them back," Xu Qingtang chuckled and teased.

"Well, Officer Xu, I have a lot of cleanup stuff to do at my shop. Next time, next time, okay?" Lu Fang said politely, afraid that Xu Qingtang would really come knocking on his door, and quickly ended the conversation.

Officer Li, who was driving the police car, couldn't help but feel curious as he watched the policewoman in his station truly beam with joy.

This icy beauty is so cold and aloof that she never even gives anyone a smile at the office. Why is she all smiles like this when she takes out her phone? Does she have some good news to share?

"Sister Xu, what good news is it this time?" Seeing that Xu Qingtang was in a good mood, Xiao Li asked tentatively.

"Drive your car properly." Hearing this, Xu Qingtang's smile faded, and she glared at him.

Xiao Li immediately sat up straight, keeping his eyes fixed straight ahead, thinking to himself, "This is the Officer Xu I know! Who was that guy just now?"

The mainland side was, of course, completely unaware of this.

Qin Zhuyan seemed to sense something, wiped her tears with his clothes, and looked up at him: "Someone is looking for you?"

"It's nothing, someone else has made a reservation." Lu Fang brushed it off, not intending to tell Qin Zhuyan the truth: "Now that the two free laborers are gone, our bathing activity has to end, or I'll die here."

Lu Fang suddenly remembered something, his face fell, and he immediately ordered Xu Yi to cancel the event.

Just kidding. Before, when they had a 50% off promotion, they had free labor. Now that they're still having it, with the previous customer traffic, the most optimistic way for me to die is from overwork.

"But if I remember correctly, there are still more than a dozen large dogs that haven't been bathed yet," Qin Zhuyan said, counting them one by one on her fingers.

"Manager, can we get a refund? It'll be a disaster if we finish the treatment at the scheduled time." Lu Fang blinked his big, bright eyes, trying to get away with it by being cute.

"You little rascal." Qin Zhuyan chuckled and gently tapped Lu Fang's head with her slender, white fingers.

"Forget about a refund. Our store values ​​its reputation; we don't take back promotions once they've been launched."

Upon hearing this, Lu Fang's heart sank.

"But the two of us really can't handle all the washing. I'll find a temporary worker for the next couple of days. It'll be fine if it costs a little. Anyway, I made quite a bit last month," Qin Zhuyan thought to herself.

"Long live the store manager!"

He picked Qin Zhuyan up and spun her around several times.

"Xiao Fang, you..."

It wasn't until Qin Zhuyan blushed and spoke up that Lu Fang realized what he had done. He quickly put Qin Zhuyan down and explained, "I was just happy for a moment..."

Before he could finish speaking, Qin Zhuyan whispered, "Don't let it happen again!"

He then ran to the storage room, saying he was going to tidy up.

Lu Fang was a little confused, but he had finally gotten rid of Qin Zhiqiang, this big trouble. But before he could even be happy for a minute, his phone suddenly vibrated.

Socialite Tanuki: "@My God, what's going on, Sheriff? You said you'd bring him back in a month, and now that time's up. Is it convenient for me to come to your house tomorrow?"

When Lu Fang saw this sentence, his brain froze for half a second.

Oops!
